Best Options if Jeanty Picked Before Cowboys Turn

[SFloridaCowboy]

And Tet McMillan is still there? Do we pick him? Or trade down a few spots, netting an extra 3rd, then selecting Emeka Egbuka, a speedier option?

Then in the 2nd round, select one of the best of the remaining RB's: O. Hampton out of NC, K. Johnson out of Iowa, Tre Henderson of Ohio State, D. Sampson out of Tennessee.

The Boys are in great need of impact offensive players. Getting two in this draft will boost this team into a necessary unit with great firepower.

With an extra 3rd, the Boys must select a DT and a LB, both of whom must be able to contribute right away and have no injury history.

No matter if Jeanty is or isn't there at 12, the Cowboys need to trade down like last year and get an extra 3rd rounder. There are many RB's in this draft and getting a good one won't be hard.

The Cowboys probably need to fix the defense before adding shiny new WR's. They need DT's and DE's and LB's. I wouldn't consider drafting an offensive player until the 3rd round and then it would be at RB.

They have already invested a 4th at WR. Considering all their needs, spending a 1st and 4th or a 2nd and 4th at WR in this draft seems like overkill and not necessarily the best approach.

I am all over the place in this draft. I think it is a defensive draft though, especially round 2 through 7. The more I look at it the more I think they may be better off taking an offensive player in the first. I am not convinced McMillan is the right guy for Dallas.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

I heard many times to fix our defensive run issue, we have to get high-level play from the DT and Lber positions. The draft is stacked with DTs........I'm leaning strongly LBer with the 1st ( Jihaad Campbell)

Haptom going late 1st. First 3 picks should be wr/rb/dt in any order but I would go

Wr
Dt
Rb

I fully expect DE, DT and LB signed and re signed.

Tank, Lawson, Kendrick’s, Osa and signing a LB like EJ Speed

 

[Rayman70]

We can't rule out CB at 12. Depends on how we have our board stacked. Will Johnson or Barron is a real possibility. Let's not forget how thin we are at CB.

I swear Cowboys fans fetishize trading down more than anyone. It's like it becomes the awnser to every question.

Poor use of resources with so many defensive needs. Offense can wait till the 3rd round. However, I'm fine with taking a WR really if they can add an extra premium pick. Trenches first.

 

[morasp]

I would be on board for a trade down but if we stuck with the pick these guys are currently ranked higher than 12

2 Abdul Carter Edge
3 Travis Hunter CB
4 Tyler Warren TE
5 Walter Nolen DL
6 Colston Loveland TE
7 Will Johnson (Boom/Bust) CB
8 Mason Graham DT
9 Luther Burden III WR
10 Mykel Williams Edge
11 Armand Membou OL

The combine isn't over and free agency hasn't started so ask me again in April.

When your team is inactive in FA, they need all the draft picks they can get.

 

[cowboyec]

if jeanty is gone...
•de mykel williams,georgia
•de shemar stewart,texas a&m
•dt kenneth grant,michigan
•rb omarion hampton,north carolina
•ol armand membou,mizzou
any of'm...please and thank you.

 

[gtb1943]

Unless Mason Graham or someone like that drops, I am fully on board with dropping down far enough to get another 2nd rd pick. To me THAT is where the real meat is in this draft, and still a fair amount in the third rd.

we are NOT one superstar away from being contenders.

and there are very few of that in this draft

 

[ATXSRT]

If Jeanty falls to us I don't see how we don't draft him. Jerry will give him 22 as the 2nd coming of Emmitt. If someone gets him before us I can see us trading out of the 1st entirely to stockpile picks for this year and next year. There's a ton of talent that can be had in the 2nd and 3rd rounds especially at WR and RB. I really like that Savion Williams kid out of TCU too, reminds me of DK Metcalf. Could pick him up in the 3rd. I think more is better with this draft.

I was thinking CB was one of our deeper positions but that changes if Diggs is gone.

I don’t see too many guys getting 8 or 22..people get 88 because that was before Jerry.

I don’t like trading down from talent. I don’t trade away from a guy I have a high grade on just for a 3rd. Now if someone wants to give me a 2 and I go down a few spots I might listen.

The key to all that is having a pool of players with similar grades. That should be the case at 12.

How far and compensation depends on the chart.

It depends. For instance if McMillian falls to us at 12 i'm not trading away from him regardless of who's available. Or if Mason Graham is there same. If I want a 3rd rounder that bad trade next years 4 and this years 4 to move or whatever it may be.
